I’m making some this weekend. Kicking raisins out to touch too. Do you have granola dos and don’ts?

I’ve been buying a brand called Lizi’s (I think that’s it) and never thought of making my own before. Any recipe you can share?

Where do you buy that Le Craic? I can’t see to find anywhere that stocks Granola.
My recipe is pretty basic. Oven preheated to 250F. Mix rolled oats, almonds, walnuts, dried apricots, wheatgerm together. In another bowl mix dark brown sugar, maple syrup and veggie oil. Then add the sugary mix to the dry, and mix well. Spread over baking trays and toast for around 1hr20mins. Every 20 mins or so, take out the trays and toss the mix about for an even toasting.

I get it in the local Tesco (Wicklow Town). It’s hard to find and maybe not all branches stock it. Here’s a link to the product page so you can see what the pack looks like if you go a hunting for it!

Thanks for that recipe Lexia, I’m gonna try that out and let you know how it goes. Between that and the geek badge you’ve given so much….
